| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND
The need to maintain the City of
Allen's plumbing systems is a collective responsibility, ensuring safety to our
City of Allen employees and citizens. Repairing City buildings is an important
daily operation, especially on the heels of the devastating winter storm
experienced throughout the State of Texas this February.
On July 1, 2021, the Purchasing
Division received four responsive proposals. Amundson Plumbing and Dynamic
Systems, Inc., provided bids that represent the overall best service and
value to the City. Amundson Plumbing will provide plumbing repair services while Dynamic
Systems, Inc., will provide backflow testing services.
Amundson Plumbing has been doing business with the City of Allen for three years. They are highly skilled at all Plumbing Services, but did not offer Backflow Testing Services (outside the scope of their business). They are routinely on-time, below budget and incredibly transparent in terms of their work.
Dynamic Systems, Inc., came in as the second lowest price and were highly recommended by the City of Arlington.
Both organizations provided certifications for Master and Journeyman plumbers, with Dynamic Systems providing additional certifications for Backflow Testing through the Texas Department of Licenses and Registrations.
|
| | | | | | | | BUDGETARY IMPACT
Funding for plumbing and backflow
testing services are included in the City's departmental operating budgets.
|
| | | | | | | | STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City
Council Award Bid and Authorize the City Manager to Execute Contracts with Amundson Plumbing for Plumbing Services in the Amount of $100,000 and Dynamic Systems, Inc., for Backflow Testing Services in the Amount of $25,000, for One-Year with Two Optional One-Year Renewal Terms for a Total Annual Amount of $125,000.
